yes, I get this too using SX 3.1. I also get this when hitting the mute button on the virus track. I have to do a midi reset from cubase to stop it.

You can press the MONO and SYNC buttons together = PANIC. which I have been doing so all day long. You would think with sample accurate midi timing they would have sample accurate midi off messages. My gues is that under heavy cpu loads the USB link between Viurs Control and the Virus hardware is strugling. Realy the weak link in the chain is USB and Windows.

I suppose we have to give the guys @ Access a little time to iron a few things out..

It has been mentioned before that it's impossible to try Virus Control on every possible system config. Let's hope for some nice new fixes soon

Bug number x71b?
Patch Common Pannorama, not remembered in Seq Mode.

I still get hanging notes and arp speed wobbles. Best work around is to not 'sync to external' use 'Internal sync' and set each patch to Bpm or your project.

I have a little question...

How does the TI work when using it as a normal midi based-analogue in/out unit? You know, in a similar way to how you'd use a VC for example.

Motu 828,powercore(Firewire),LOGIC 5.5.1.pc,

I'm using the latest OS 1.03 on the Ti desktop USB with Logic 5.5.1 and every time i try to open a second virus instrument track in my song it won't let me,the Vst opens on the second track but i can't access it.There is a message "Total integration status page" and 3 crosses underneath it..I this a bug or have i got to switch something on..I had a look in the manual,but no joy.........................

You can open only 1 Virus instrument and you use the same gui for every channel. You have to build the rest tracks with midi tracks. I guess the virus ti manual explains how you do it. You must probably use the environment to do that.

Yes, Hollow it works very well. I tried an experiment: Did lots of work on a tune with USB midi and Virus Control, unplugged the USB midi cable. went with normal midi for the mixdown. No hanging notes of tempo bumps.

I've been using the TI without USB for three days now, and I've had nothing but bugs. Patches slip out of character, MIDI notes fail to transmit, horrible digital noise exploding out of every output, vocoder crashing, default INIT patch playing over every patch, and I've just about had enough. If Access don't give me some advice on Monday, I'm sending the machine back - and probably ask for my money back until they sort this mess out.

Really? This sounds very odd.

Firstly, I assume you've installed the latest OS?

Which TI model do you have?

Have you tried resetting the TI (Press ARP EDIT in standby mode, or hold it down whilst plugging in the power cable)? What happens after doing this?

What are you using to transmit midi to the virus? Are you sure you're only sending on one midi channel at a time? If not, this could explain the INIT patch 'playing over every patch' (assuming I'm understanding you correctly here?)
